Chapter 290

London, United Kingdom. This is an old (sort of) and bustling city. At this time, a catastrophe is being faced. Let's start with half an hour ago.

Underneath the London Museum, you can see all sorts of seemingly unnoticed, high-tech instruments. On the ground, the mystical symbols on the walls shimmer strangely under the reflection of various automatic lights. The guards come and go, holding the latest automatic weapons in their hands, but they also have antique swords or cold weapons such as axes hanging from their waists. From time to time, there was some kind of inexplicable scream, or the howl of a wild beast, from time to time in the rooms around the hallway.

It's like a special underground base where modern and ancient, science fiction and magic mix. And in the deepest part of this base, in a special room. A woman covered in strange runes and coiled with ancient Egyptian French style is locked in a huge magic circle by chains.

Eight tubes of unknown material pierced the woman's body, instilling something in her body. Judging by the traces of the wound overflowing, it appears to be some kind of silvery-white liquid.

Around the woman's body, there were four soldiers guarding her. They were all armed with a special long-handled battle axe. It looks like bronze, but it's very shabby, like an antique dug out of the ground.

They looked serious, but their eyes were actually a little wandering. It's clear that this kind of guarding scene has been going on for quite some time. The four guards were already a little tired. They didn't notice that a spider was creeping out of the cracks in the floor.

The spider is a symbol of darkness in the West. This is obviously not a surprise. I saw that the spider quietly avoided everyone's attention and burrowed into the keyhole in the woman's hand.

There was a slight click, and one of the guards looked down in confusion. However, nothing unusual was found. The witch is still in a powerless slumber. He then withdrew his eyes, almost cranky. There are still a few minutes to go, so there's no way there will be a problem at this time.

And that's when more spiders appeared. They quickly burrowed into the other three keyholes. The three locks in the back were opened. At this time, the surrounding suddenly remembered the shrill siren. Immediately after, a hurried voice sounded over the loudspeaker.

"You idiots, catch that witch."

Only then did the four guards realize that the witch had broken free from her chains. The faces of the four of them changed, and their original lazy expressions disappeared in an instant. The long-handled axe in his hand was cut down without hesitation, and the witch was about to be dismantled on the spot.

Although the witch broke free, the mercury in her body still suppressed most of her mana. Those dangerous bronze axes are fully capable of inflicting heavy injuries on her, or even killing her.

It's just that witches aren't witches in the conventional sense either. Even without her mana, she still showed amazing hand-to-hand combat ability. With his bare hands, he was able to maneuver with four guards a few times.

About twenty seconds later, a heavily armed special operations team rushed in. The automatic weapon in his hand was full of firepower, and directly beat the witch into a sieve. However, at this time, everyone noticed that the witch's wound was not blood, but a large amount of mercury.

"Seal this here, notify the sealing team." The captain shouted. But it was already too late. A raging tornado rolled up out of thin air. Rolled a dozen soldiers to the ceiling at the same time, and then slammed them to the ground. A guard armed with a bronze axe was the only one who escaped the blow.

The guard was also nimble, and without thinking about it, he threw the bronze axe in his hand directly at the witch. Then he turned around and took a brisk walk, ran to a red button by the wall, and pressed it directly.

The sound of clanging sounded one after another. A large number of metal plates with unknown runes fell from all sides, sealing the entire room completely.

But as if he hadn't seen this, the wizard walked straight to the surviving guards. And at this time, the guards also realized something. He suddenly reached out and pulled out the short knife from his leg, stabbing it into his heart. He was going to kill himself.

But at this time, he found that he could no longer control his hands. The dagger in her hand was gently taken by the witch. She first slashed her palm, staining the dagger with her own blood. Then the ancient Egyptian secret method was recited in his mouth. Eventually, a knife stabbed the guard in the heart.

Suicide by oneself is a completely different concept from killing this witch. The guards who are here are obviously specially trained. Learn about this witch. Know that the source of the other party's power comes from Seth, the god of death. If you die, you're dead. But if it falls into the hands of a witch, it will inevitably be sacrificed.

You must know that although the woman is a royal family, she is essentially the high priest of Seth, the god of death. Being sacrificed by such a high-level sacrifice can be imagined.

An unusually oppressive force flashed through the enclosed room. But it's enough.

……………………

When Su Yuan rushed back to the Witch Academy, the picture of London was being broadcast live on TV.

"This is an unprecedented sandstorm. We don't know exactly what the cause is. It was like God's punishment on man. Within half an hour, the sandstorm had covered the whole of London. In the area that is covered, visibility is almost zero. And, according to some survivors, the sandstorm seems to contain some special power. All the buildings that were swept by it quickly desertified and became part of the sandstorm. ”

Fiona turned off the TV.

"That's the basics. It looks like the secret methods of the priests of ancient Egypt. It's just that I've never seen such powerful magic fluctuations. The wizards of all Los Angeles combined, they can't create the same effect as on TV. What's more, the magic is still spreading rapidly, and in another half an hour, the whole of London will fall. ”

It was not just the power of the priest, it was clearly the hand of a high priest who communicated with the true God. Desert and Storm are clearly the power of Seth, one of the Egyptian Nine Pillars. ”

"It is impossible for a god of that level to directly intervene in the human world. The most people who can put their power into the world are gatekeepers of the level of Regba. ”

"Theoretically, that's how it should be. But now, the rules have been tampered with, and it is clear that someone has modified something. Let a stronger force force descend on the world. Looks like I don't have time for a vacation. I need to get to London right away. But before I can do me a favor. ”
